How do you find equivalent resistance between two points?

Answer
  1. Identify the configuration: Determine which resistors are in series and which are in parallel between the two points
  2. Simplify step by step: Start with the innermost combinations, calculate their equivalent resistance, and replace them with a single resistor
  3. Continue reducing: Keep simplifying until you have one resistance value between the two points
  4. Verify your work: Trace the current path to ensure your simplification is correct
